About This Currently Only Enrolling Glioblastoma Patients at First Recurrence Study in Winston Salem

This phase I trial studies the safety of giving multiple intracerebral doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 to treat patients with glioblastoma at first recurrence. NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 consists of neural stem cells that can target glioblastoma cells and carry a virus, which can kill cancer cells. Giving multiple doses of NSC-CRAd-S-pk7 may kill more tumor cells.
